As industrial automation advances, more enterprises are adopting robotic solutions for higher efficiency and safety. However, in real-world deployment, grinding robots still face multiple challenges: loss of zero-point calibration after collisions, structural rigidity issues leading to surface waviness, frequent failures of core components, complex and time-consuming programming and debugging, poor coordination with peripheral equipment, and slow after-sales response. These obstacles remain key barriers to the widespread adoption of domestic grinding robots.
Here’s how we tackle them: With expertise in core technologies, ROKAE Robotics has launched a portfolio of high-performance grinding robots and innovative solutions. With great market success across industries such as automotive, 3C electronics, metalworking, and general manufacturing, ROKAE has established a clear competitive edge in polishing automation.
Advanced Core Technologies
ROKAE addresses the toughest challenges in polishing applications by mastering underlying robotic technologies and continuously investing in R&D, innovation, and iteration. Powered by its self-developed xCore control system, ROKAE robots deliver breakthroughs in speed, precision, vibration suppression, and collision sensitivity.
· High-precision collision detection: Real-time monitoring based on dynamic models significantly enhances sensitivity, ensuring zero-point calibration is preserved after collisions.
· Outstanding trajectory accuracy: TrueMotion path planning with high-precision error compensation achieves absolute accuracy better than 0.4 mm and repeatability within ±0.04 mm, while vibration suppression technology minimizes end-effector oscillation.
· Faster cycle times: OptiMotion motion control enables optimal time planning based on full dynamic models, ensuring top-level robot speed and smooth execution of complex trajectories, such as continuous attitude change and continuous small segment short path, while extending equipment lifespan.
Newly Upgraded Robot Hardware
ROKAE has redesigned its robot structure with medium-to-large hollow industrial robots using quasi-hypoid gear transmission, better suited for demanding polishing tasks.
· High rigidity structure: RV reducers for axes 1–3 and quasi-hypoid gears for axes 4–6 provide superior load bearing and impact resistance, ideal for turbo housings, pistons, and servo casings polishing.
· Large hollow wrist: A 57 mm hollow wrist simplifies cable routing for polishing tools, enabling easier deployment.
· Extended working range: Expanded wrist rotation (Axis 4: ±215°, Axis 5: ±225°, Axis 6: ±450°) allows more flexible motion and simplified trajectory programming.
· Enhanced protection: With IP67 wrist and IP65 body ratings, ROKAE robots operate reliably even in harsh environments.
Intelligent and Flexible Software
ROKAE equips its robots with industry-tailored force-control, vision, offline programming systems, and customized interface, ensuring adaptability to complex scenarios and ease of integration.
